Switch S2-3: Response to Local Line Loop Requests from DTE

Use Switch S2-3 to enable Local Line Loopback from the local DTE interface (See Section 5.3.1).

S2-3	Activation	Description
Off	Disabled	Ignore Line Loop Back request
		from DTE interface
On	Enabled	Respond to Line Loop Back
		request from DTE interface

Switches S2-4 and S2-5: Not Assigned

Switch S2-6: Response to RDL Request from DTE

Use Switch S2-6 to determine the Model 1092 response to RDL requests from the local DTE. In the enabled setting, the 1092 responds to RDL requests from the local DTE by sending an RDL loop request to the remote Model 1092 (See Section 5.3.2).

S2-3	Activation	Description
Off	Disabled	Ignore Remote Digital Loopback
		request from DTE interface
On	Enabled	Respond to Remote Digital Loop
		Back request from DTE interface

Switches S2-7 and S2-8: Control Port Data Rate

Use Switches S2-7 and S2-8 to configure Model 1092’s control port bit rate.

S2-7	S2-8	Setting
On	On	9600 Bps (default)
Off	On	19,2000 Bps
On	Off	38,400 Bps
Off	Off	57,600 Bps

3.2CONFIGURING THE SOFTWARE SWITCHES

The Model 1092 features a menu-driven command system that allows you to configure either the local or remote 1092. Follow the instructions below to configure the Model 1092 using the software switches:

1)Connect the serial RS-232 port of a V100 or similar DTE with terminal emulation to the EIA/TIA-561l port of the Model 1092. To construct an RS-232 to EIA-561 patch cable, refer to the control port pinout diagram in Appendix D. Refer to Appendix C to order a pre-made cable.

2)Power up the terminal and set its RS-232 port as follows:

9600 Baud

8 data bits, i stop bit, no parity Local echo

CR-CR/LF on inbound data ANSI, VT-100 emulation

3)Verify that switches S2-8 and S2-7 are set to ON.

4)Power up the Model 1092.

5)After the Model 1092 is powered on, the control port will send out this message:

2W BBM, ver x.x

6)Press [ESC] on the terminal.

7)The 1092 will then display the MAIN MENU screen. You may configure the LOCAL Model 1092 from this screen. To configure the REMOTE Model 1092, press ‘$’ (Shift-4 on most keyboards).

Important!!: To make a selection from any menu, enter the option number. To exit any menu without making a selection, or to return to the previous menu, press the [ESC] key or the [SPACE] key.
